Answer: B: Control of the Mississippi river.
Explanation: They did not want control of it because if you do your research, it says that it was believed that the land west of the Mississippi river was useless and that is where they were making the Indians go, so if the land west of it was useless why would they want control of the river? Also I did the test and got it right.
The control of the Mississippi river was not one of the main reasons for western expansion that led to the conflict between white Americans and Native Americans.
What was the Western Expansion?
The Louisiana purchase occurred when the united states purchased all the lands south of the Mississippi river from the French.
The Native Americans were then forced to move over to that side because it was thought at that time those lands were useless.
The deal of the purchase granted the united states the right to obtain lands from the inhabitants either by contract or by conquest.
